Letter to the Editor

Let the vote stand

I voted for Prop B to require puppy mills to provide clean water and food for dogs. I am appalled that our Missouri Legislature thinks the voters are so stupid they do not understand this bill.

The U.S. is not a monarchy. Our elected representatives are not smarter than we are. They claim this bill is trying to prevent Missourians from eating meat.

Cruelty to dogs is what Missouri is known for nationally. Those who abuse animals are not good stewards of God's good earth.

Let our voice and vote stand.
